The two large volumes contain masses of photographs from the battlefields and staterooms, paintings of war scenes on all fronts, portraits (facsimiles in oil on canvas) of important and non-important persons of the war, all captioned. Some paintings (especially the portraits) in full color, others b&w. Volume 2 includes a large fold-out map of the progress of battle in color - slightly yellowing but otherwise flawless. 400x310mm, [660]+[661-1303] pages. Maroon Board hardcover with leather spines, gilt decoration on front and gilt lettering on spine. [BOTH VOLUMES]: Covers scratched and worn, edges worn, spine worn and lightly peeling.
